The problem is that you can't grasp that I am linking you the text of
ACTUAL LAW! It is NOT interpretaion. It can not be one of a thousands, there's only one text of law. It can not be biased. Not only I explained in lengths on what is and what is not allowed, but I linked it to you twice so you can google translate it and see yourself.
